Simonsig Encore Vin Sec 2006 Wine

The lovely pale straw colour indicates good evolution after three years on the yeast lees. The nose shows ripe biscuity red grape flavours, which is followed by hints of toasted nuts and freshly baked bread. The higher than normal Chardonnay content gives the wine a young citrusy zest. The mousse is fine and creamy on the palate enhancing the nutty, biscuity flavour. The elegant sweetness of this Sec Sparkling wine is perfectly integrated and adds even more length and body to this already well balanced wine.
